UNLUCKY
Ch.25 - Tells the Truth
In the morning Mertie had been waiting at the bus stop like an ironing iron that daritadi pacing and fro and if there was a sound of a car approaching, immediately turned to check.
Despite waiting for 10 minutes but Mertie felt that she had waited 10 years to meet Felix and Cain.
Felix and Cain get off the bus with a gaze not separated from Mertie since seen from the bus window which from the beginning of the bus came already greeted the angry gaze of Mertie. The smile sucks Felix and Cain, which makes Mertie want to explode, but she is arrested because there is Teo and Tom behind them.
"Hi ... uh, Mertie right?" hello Teo.
"Hi Teo, Tom ..." Mertie's reply looks forced.
"Do you know our names?" ask Tom
"Who doesn't know the triplets."
"Wah .. glad to hear it ...." Teo and Tom embrace each other.
Felix and Cain ignored Mertie and just walked around leisurely and with meaningful smiles.
"Why are you waiting here? are you waiting for someone?" ask Teo.
"Ah, no .. It seems like he has come because it does not appear as well."
"Maybe we're still on the road, we're ahead .." said the insensitive Tom and left Mertie.
From the bus stop to class, Mertie had no chance to vent her anger. Felix and Cain also did not stop looking at him with a mocking smile making Mertie bite her lips until it bled so badly.
Finally the long-awaited lunch hour came. Felix and Cain head for the school roof with each of them followed by Mertie in the back.
"Until when will you follow us?" felix asked as he climbed the stairs to the roof.
"What have you done with my tree house?" ask Mertie.
"Thank God we just took the things that were there, Felix even planned to destroy your tree house.
"Where do you keep all the things in my tree house? Where?!"
Felix and Cain open the outer coat of her uniform and throw it at Mertie who is under the stairs.
"What the fuck are you guys?" Mertie removed Felix and Cain's suit from her face.
"You know what the fuck, we've done the job because it's too late and you're covered in pink paint" Cain replied in annoyance.
"It's good we didn't report you but this reply? Once again you prank us I'll announce who you really are!" felix Threat.
"It's also your fault ... if only you helped me from the beginning .. you think I did that out of liking?" Mertie has lowered the volume.
"We can what? What can you do too? The problem you're trying to figure out is too much for a 10-year-old" Felix started walking up the stairs again.
"I just want to be able to live with my parents ...." Mertie sobbed, "Because of putting my safety first I rarely get to meet them."
Cain stopped his steps but Felix kept going.
"Felix?" Cain called.
"Teo and Tom are up there, if you shout again they'll hear you," Felix said, as Cain began to climb the stairs again.
Mertie then sat on the side of Felix and Cain's suit in her hand.
"Felix?"
"What?" Felix is getting upset with Cain too.
"Let's hurry!" yells Teo and Tom.
The two of them finally stopped staring at each other and walked towards where Teo and Tom were for lunch.
Felix and Cain did not talk to each other and just focused on spending each other's supplies. Teo and Tom are busy recounting their favorite anime and are unaware of anything.
After lunch, the four of them went down the stairs and Mertie was not there just leaving Felix and Cain's coat on the side.
"Why did you keep it here?" teo asked while sharing it with Felix and Cain.
"So it's overheated so it's opened," Cain's ridiculous excuse.

Journey home but Felix and Cain still don't talk to each other. Teo and Tom finally realize there is something wrong with them and don't talk at all. Their journey became silent without sound and only the sound of their shoes rhyming.
Up in front of the gate of the home, there was Tan waiting with a water bottle. Teo and Tom immediately ran over to Tan.
"Felix?" said Cain.
"Emm?" Felix refused to answer.
"Let's help Mertie!"
"From any angle it's the Cain family's problem" Felix stressed.
"At least we can help a little."
Felix stopped his steps making Cain so pounding.
"Ba .. ba .. ik ...." Cain was stammered.
"Why did you stammer like that? Did you do something wrong?" ask Felix, "Before that we have to tell them first ..." he continued.
"Tell you?" Cain looked at Felix.
"You sure?" Cain began to understand after following the direction of Felix's gaze which was staring at the three twins.
Eventually Felix and Cain reached the gate and were treated to warm water from Tan, "How was it today?" ask Tan.
"I want to tell you something."
"Tell me what?"
"Later after dinner you come to my room and Cain!" felix's orders.
After cleaning themselves up and changing their clothes the five of them headed for the dining room. As usual, there were only five of them left. Tan had dinner so just accompanied. Ms. Corliss sat down at their table, carrying her teacup and reading the newspaper without a word. The five of them also did not feel disturbed and considered it normal to chat as usual regardless of Bu Corliss.
Felix, who was sitting opposite Ms. Corliss, saw the picture of the train accident on the front page of the newspaper that Ms. Corliss was holding, "Why can I see the flashback of an incident? What luck? I should be able to see the future and stop bad things from happening" Felix said in his heart and turned his gaze to his food.
Felix seemed to not care but from the bottom of his heart he also felt guilty. Right now, he is full of many thoughts. Starting from the guilt of the Helianthus Orphanage fire that seems to be no completion - plus the words Ghost little boy who is like a fairy tale but Felix's hair that has begun to be overgrown with a lot of colored hair green, the nails that glow green at night and can grow trees, eyes that can see an event and ears that can hear the voice for help, "Aaahhh!" Felix clutched his hair in annoyance.
"You why?" Ms. Corliss lowered her glasses, "Don't you've entered the time ...." Ms. Corliss did not continue because she was suddenly called a kitchen attendant.

After they finished eating, Felix and Cain led the way, "Ceklek!" the sound of the door opening.
Cain turned on the room lights and the three twins immediately put on a gawking face looking at Felix and Cain's room filled with hanging articles. All of Mertie's stuff is in that room.
Felix begins to explain starting from the identity of the Pink Ghost is Mertie.
"So all this?" ask Tom.
"It's all Mertie's stuff from the tree house" replied Cain.
"So it's true that the tree house belongs to a pink ghost ... Mertie," Teo who had been leaning on Tan began to sit down with a curious expression.
"So why are you telling us?" ask Tan.
"The reason he prattled was because he wanted to find a partner to accompany him to do the investigation," Cain hesitantly replied as he looked at Felix's expression.
"Investigating?" Teo stood up and started reading the article one by one.
"We just want to tell you who the identity of the pink ghost is instead of trying to get you involved" Felix said.
"Then why are you showing this?" ask Tan.
"So you guys volunteer!" felix's answer that made Cain gawk then followed by laughter from those who made Felix and Cain's room so noisy.
